And didn't the error from that command give you some idea it didn't 
work?

Again, what distro and version?

You seem to be willy-nilly throwing solutions at this problem without 
really understanding either one. Based on ChangeLogs from RedHat and 
SGI, no major things have changed, and as others have pointed out, the 
fam including in distro's *does* work.

t stands for "tar", i.e. a gzip'd or compressed tar file.

Can you start completely over? 
Based on rpm versions you've given so far (mysql, xinetd) this sounds 
like an older distro. 
Is this machine doing other functions, or can you re-install the OS?
